If you think back, this is fairly typical with modern day presidents. Nixon was disgraced, so he pretty much just hid out. Ford retired and played golf. Carter works with Habitat for Humanity and goes around the world working on peace. Reagan goes riding at his ranch. GHWB retires to wherever he lives. WJC starts a foundation that saves lives. GWB learns to paint pictures. If you look at this trend, Republican presidents do nothing after their term(s) in office. Democrats continue to work to make the world a better place. One more reason we need to keep electing Democrats to the presidency.
Good morning to you Gail. Of course I guess I should point out that Betty Ford, First Lady, started the Betty Ford clinic in Palm Springs, a clinic that is now huge and very important to that community. But the hubby pretty much played golf. I’ll have to see if any of the other Republican First Ladies did anything to help people once they were out of office. Time for some research.
GM Nerdy. Thank you for all you do for TOD. been readying but not commenting. There is some real garbage on the tubes about the money sent to Iran. My gawd the comments were just sickening, almost wanted to throw up. Have a good day today. Andy other busy one. Just a lul in the storm.
Caught the very end of Bill Press Show. Just in time to hear him talk about the “perceptions” and “optics” so “that’s why the Clinton Foundation should be shutdown.” GAWD! These people make me sick. Sigh……….
And, see trending on Twitter that the Today Show staff was embarrassed by Al Roker’s comments about Ryan Lochte. Well cry me a river. White privilege on full display. Good for Roker and bless him. Hope he never apologizes and “walks back his comments.”
When you see those comments about Lochte and thank God, do a happy dance and want to hug Al Roker and at the same time notice the confusion on the faces of those that typically enable the white privilege and want to tell them off, what does that say about you. Inquiring minds would like to know.
I’M TIRED OF THE ARGUMENT…CHANGE THE NAME OF THE FOUNDATION AND IT WILL GO AWAY…IT’S JUST A NAME..USE SOMETHING ELSE..ALL THIS CLINTON JUNK JUST DRAGS ON AND OF COURSE..IT WILL DAMAGE THE ELECTION. CHELSEA’S CHARITY SOUNDS GOOD TO ME..ENOUGH IS ENOUGH!
Nerdy…I beg you to post this everywhere….Tweet this out, scream this out….get it out. I’m crying now and I have to pull myself together to go to work. Get mad people. Get busy and get active to GOTV. SPEAK YOUR VOICE LOUD AND CLEAR!
Morning, CD; Glad I am that you enjoy DOI vid clips. π They are so good they make me feel envious that we of the north don’t showcase our natural beauty in a similar fashion.
Re offspring’s desertion, I’m managing – no cooking or conversation if I don’t want to. π π
In all seriousness, I’m fine. Offspring is a great companion because we are both relatively quiet/low key persons who generally just roll with the punches – together or apart. In the last unplanned two weeks, we did however bemoan the fact that we rushed through West Wing and then couldn’t find anything comparable we both liked. What with DC travel, meeting friends, and WW, we had a terrific summer together, however. Life’s good. π π
How is the granddaughter – walking and talking, yet? π I bet you had a terrific time together!
I agree that it is hard to find something to watch after WW. I did enjoy Foyle’s War, which is a British crime series during WWII. Little to no language of the kind you don’t like. Check that one out. Our library has the entire series, so perhaps you can find it there.
And my granddaughter, thank you for asking, is standing and wanting to walk, though only 8 months old. Her mother walked at 8 months, and ran at 9 months. I haven’t been able to keep up with her since. I love watching how the gd is so proud of herself for things like only holding on with one hand when standing. She is a very happy baby, and on my recent visit she went into fits of laughter, full on unstoppable laughter, at me down on the floor on all fours, trying to get her toys out from under the sofa. I think this is a precursor of the effect I will have on her whenever I try to discipline her in the future. My goose is already cooked, at 8 months of age. Oh well.
Happy babies are a *treat* aren’t they? I generally think parents have hit *a* nail on the head when they can create an environment that relaxes a baby [and yes, I do know that sometimes colic makes that virtually impossible].
“I think this is a precursor of the effect” – Nah, it’s a precursor of the fact that she’ll laugh *with you* in happy moments. π
Oh thank goodness! I will hold onto that hope instead of the one I put forward. I look forward to laughing with her so much. She has one of those horse little heh heh laughs that just cracks us all up.
I must stop or I will get bounced off the site by NW for writing paragraphs and paragraphs about her. π
No bouncing from site – happy news is welcomed here. It would be the perfect antidote to DT’s garbage (perfectly relevant too) and not only because your gd is part if our future. π π π
I’m suddenly thinking a short story each week from ONE of our many TOD grandparents would be a wonderful reminder of why we are ‘in it to win it’, as well as a reminder that DT is poison as he’s trying to destroy their country.
Gotta speed up with this, VC. I read months ago, emojis are the new hieroglyphics, and will shortly become the only way we communicate via mobile devices.. I practice diligently, no way I want to be left behind in the 20th Century, with all the neanderthals still stumbling around back there…. β€
Hmmm, I see a parting of the ways coming, P, as I still only turn on my ‘mobile device’ when *I* want to make a call or send a text AND then I still use *real* sentences. I’m a perfect candidate for the adage ‘You can’t teach an old dog new tricks’…..when s/he doesn’t want to learn. π
MP, CM. @Interior does such a terrific job. Wish I knew the channels to prod *our* outdoors people to do something similar. Maybe I’ll do some research one of these days when I’m free. π
I hope so too CM, though by then I think I’m going to seriously try to see if *we* have, or can be coaxed into developing something with parallel intent.
Yea, Betsy, I was saying to CarolMae earlier that I may have to bestir myself to see if I could get *my* government to stand behind some pics & info on *our* natural beauty. π π /shrug/Being me tho, it’ll likely be an idea that goes no further.
Just a heads up for those who have the opportunity to watch daily WHPB.
White House press briefing will be early today, at 8:30am PDT (11:30am EDT), per whitehouse.gov/live. (Wonder if it’s rescheduled to not conflict with HRC speech today vs. alt-right, no doubt WH staff preparing popcorn now.)
And whoaaaaaaaaaaa — HRC is cranking up the heat today (in Reno NV, if I’m not mistaken):
LOL! Must be pretty real to have PBO standing there with his goggles on, looking up at the summit as he did when he was visiting the park!! Howling!! ππβππ ππ βππ
Don, I was thinking that she was watching on her monitor the same thing that he was watching.
See how two people can extract different interpretations from the same visual. Amazing! π
Hospitals in the US city of Orlando say they will not charge for treatment provided to survivors of the Pulse nightclub massacre in which 49 people were killed by a gunman in June.
They say they will write off about $5.5m (Β£4.2m) in medical care expenses.
After the attack by Omar Mateen on 12 June, 53 people needed immediate medical attention.
A new ad highlighting Sen. Richard Burr’s (R-NC) work in helping disadvantaged children in his state appears to feature black children from a school in Africa, not North Carolina.
Indeed. The GOP seems to want to dismantle just about everything that’s good, desirable, wholesome, progressive, beneficial, and in place implement everything that’s bad, unscrupulous, unhealthy, destructive, and divisive.
On November 8, 2016, we make a choice for this country.
It never ceases to amaze me how Republicans can go to these poor southern states and get the voters to consistently vote to get fucked every way known to man.
People always act insane around elections, but this time the level of crazy is so far off the charts, we need Voyager I to track it.
#TheCultOfBernie hangers-on need some serious mental health help. It’s getting a little scary, between them, and the Trumpers with all their collective Hillary hate. I’ve honestly never seen so many people, so far in denial when the facts are staring them in the face. It’s as if everyone has turned off their brains. “LA LA LA LA I CAN’T HEAR YOU.”
While I know the Trumpers are certifiable, but the BernieEmos have lost their minds, even calling this amazing blog – “fan fiction.” Seriously? Then I wonder who stages all these fake photos and news stories that are posted here? Where do they find the time or funds? Fake White House? It’s a set? Honestly, the level of denial isn’t healthy.
Screaming that anyone who donated to the Clinton Foundation MUST want something in return. WTF? Do these people demand cash when donating blood to the Red Cross? Or when dropping off stuff at Goodwill? Are they all so stupid they don’t know what the words “donation”, “charity”, and “gift” even mean?
I have to turn off NPR because the sarcasim the voices of the newstainers makes me sick to my stomach. I guess the Trump Foundation that only ENRICHES Trump companies is “smart business” sense. When DT gives so little to charities but is able to maintain a charitiable organization. Excuse the misspellings I am upset!
I can’t watch the news on TV anymore, local or cable. Too hard on my blood pressure! I just read TOD and twitter which gives me a really good idea of what’s gone on that day. Sometimes I check the Yahoo page but often have yelled at it, lol.
DJT is appalling, as is the “who me?” GOP that created this literal monster.
MSM is no better, and AP should apologize or else lose their credentials (don’t know how the credential process works, but they haven’t been journalists this week):
Democrat Hillary Clinton tops the magical 50 percent mark among American likely voters, leading Republican Donald Trump 51 β 41 percent, according to a Quinnipiac University National poll released today.
Hillary Clinton leading by ten is very bad news for the Republican nominee, but what is even worse is that 90% of those polled have already made up their minds. Only 9% of respondents said that they are open to changing their minds. This means that even if Trump got all of the people who could change their minds to support him, he would still be losing to Clinton.
Looking forward to hearing Hillary speak, I was just about to ask if anyone knew the time she was to speak. I was listening to First Lady Michelle Obama DNC speech, I’ll go back and finish till Hillary speak.

Liberals may die tonight because there are limited supplies of those injections they give you for acute schadenfreude toxicity. Ann Coulter has been Donald Trump’s biggest New York City white nationalist supporter. She’s transformed toadying into a militant act. Just today her new book In Trump We Trust was released, a genuflecting, tour de force of leader principle obsequiousness. As many have noted, in the book itself she writes that Trump can do anything, change his position on anything – none of it matters. She and they are that devoted. Everything except shift on immigration.
So today, the very day her book comes out he shambles his way to embracing the Rubio/Bush ‘Amnesty’ agenda he spent the last year railing against and using as a cudgel to destroy the Republican establishment’s favored ones. She even had an opening book party hosted by Breitbart.
Hello TODville Community.
It’s a Glorious day in MN, with Blue Sky, loads of Sunshine, Light Breeze, just Gorgeous.
Thanks, NW for your Stewardship. Obrigada, Lady, Wonka!
Congrats, Amk on your Golden β
{{{ β€ Chips β€ }}}
Sorry that I missed Josh "The Voice" Earnest presser today. I will post the Video as soon as it's made available.
Here's a C-SPAN version.
This makes me sick and furious. It is here in Knox County. The historical marker behind these fools is about William Blount. Lord, help us. This is crazy.
Hillary handed Trump his ass today. From this day forward Trump and every GOP candidate should have to answer for every racist and anti-semitic thing that Breitbart has published.
watch how coulter does the effing ‘pivot’ now
GM TOD, and congrats on first amk.
If you think back, this is fairly typical with modern day presidents. Nixon was disgraced, so he pretty much just hid out. Ford retired and played golf. Carter works with Habitat for Humanity and goes around the world working on peace. Reagan goes riding at his ranch. GHWB retires to wherever he lives. WJC starts a foundation that saves lives. GWB learns to paint pictures. If you look at this trend, Republican presidents do nothing after their term(s) in office. Democrats continue to work to make the world a better place. One more reason we need to keep electing Democrats to the presidency.
Have a good day everyone. {{{NW}}}. {{{Chips}}}
Good morning Cathleen, excellent observation! Thanks for pointing it out. {{{hugs}}}
Good morning to you Gail. Of course I guess I should point out that Betty Ford, First Lady, started the Betty Ford clinic in Palm Springs, a clinic that is now huge and very important to that community.

You go girl π
i can feel her in that dress…..

GM, Pretty! My first thought when I saw the pic was “Prettyfoot could sooooooooo rock this dress!”

PF, you were the person who came to my mind too. Alycee was reading my mind! π

loony left gonna do what loony left does and fails at.
One thing I’m grateful for is the awareness of what you just described. I have to thank Sanders for my complete convincement.

Happy centennial to the NPS (I do so enjoy the department’s lovely pictures and it’s relentless support of all the President’s admin has done)!
Thanks for this vc, and for your weekly postings from DOI. I love watching them.

POTUS is the coolest nerd in the world – and he’s not ashamed either π
LOLz, seriously!
I absolutely love this picture, a secretary ignoring her boss, she’s like “whatever dude.”
Don, I was thinking that she was watching on her monitor the same thing that he was watching.
